"Stop!"
Mey shouted at Irene, who was pretending to stab the dagger, "You don't have to look so ferocious. Although he's a heinous scum, he's still the adoptive father of the character you're playing.
So, you should hesitate with determination, and when you finally strike, express a peaceful expression of liberation. Do it again. "
"Yes!" Irene said seriously.
It had been more than half a month since her first performance in Border Town. She didn't know why she hadn't left, but instead participated in the performance of the second play. Now, the crew was rehearsing the third play, "The Witch Diaries". Judging from the script, this play was bound to be unparalleled. It was the first time she had seen such a wonderful story with twists and turns, completely abandoning the love between the prince and the princess, and the conspiracy of the court rebels. Instead, it praised the courage, friendship, and faith of ordinary people and witches … Even after reading the whole script, she couldn't help but want to applaud the characters in the story.
This was also the reason why Mey announced that she would stay for the time being.
But the real reason, she herself didn't know.
Irene fiercely stabbed the dagger, and Sam, who played the role of the adoptive father, let out a scream, "You actually …" Then he tilted his head to the side, pretending to breathe.
It was a little exaggerated. Mey shook her head, "She stabbed your heart, you don't have time to scream and then answer. You just raised your hand and pretended to grab Irene, and then you just went limp. This is the most common way to show a fatal injury. Didn't you hear anything in the drama class? "
Sam's cheeks couldn't help but blush, "I … I'm sorry."
"Do it again," she said with a blank expression.
But Irene's performance was somewhat beyond Mey's expectations. Many details were quickly corrected as long as they were mentioned once. Whether it was her serious attitude toward the play or her own acting talent, she could be regarded as one of the best. It seemed that the title of the Flower of the Theater was not entirely based on the mutual flattery of the actors at the bottom.
"Very good this time, let's stop practicing here for today." When the content of the scene was finally smoothly expressed, Mey clapped her hands, "Filin Eltek should be finished soon, right? You guys should go home and prepare dinner. After all, that water … "
"Tap water," Irene added with a smile.
"Uh, the tap water will be replenished before dusk. If we eat too late, we won't have water to bathe with." Mey coughed twice.
"Miss Mey, it's mainly because Sir Knight is coming to pick you up, right?" Rosia covered her mouth and chuckled. "There's still at least half an hour until evening."
"I heard that Master Carter is His Royal Highness's trusted aide and often goes in and out of the castle to accompany His Royal Highness," Tina also said. "Ah ah … As expected of the most dazzling star in the Western Region. He's so eye-catching everywhere he goes."
"That's enough." Irene waved her hand. "Miss Mey may not necessarily accept Master Carter."
"…" Mey raised her eyebrows. Was it because she had not been so strict recently? At first, these two people did not even dare to breathe loudly in front of her, but now they actually dared to come up and joke around. It seemed that in the next few days of rehearsal, they would have to suffer a little. Otherwise, with this level, they really did not deserve to act on the same stage as her. "I'll go first."
"Thank you for your guidance!" Irene and the group bowed their heads in salute.
Originally, only drama tutors were qualified to enjoy this kind of etiquette, but Mey did not care. She nodded and left the rehearsal room. She felt the hot outdoor air suddenly surround her.
She walked to the center of the community and sat in the shade for a while. Then, a tall man quickly walked towards her.
It was Catranis, the Lord of Border Town's Chief Knight.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." He touched the back of his head.
"It's not that long." Mey smiled faintly. "Let's go."
Since the last time he took the initiative to invite her and was rejected, not only did he not give up, but he also persevered to visit her, which was completely different from the arrogant and indifferent appearance he showed. And she was so confused that he asked her to stay. Mey was very clear about the other party's intention, but when she thought about settling down in this strange land, she felt a little confused and afraid.
Even when she first decided to come to see The Light Of Dawn, she did not intend to live here with him for a long time.
In Stronghold, she was a drama star surrounded by stars, but here, she was no different from the other members of the cast. Even her fame was not as good as that of Irene, who had once been the town's teacher.
Passing through the wide street covered by the shade, the two walked to the convenience market in the center of the town.
The appearance of this town was simply changing every week. Last week, the outside of the community was still bare, but now it was lush and green. As long as it did not rain, there was construction almost every day. If it wasn't to repair the roads, then it was to repair the houses. More often than not, the construction was carried out at the same time. It was rare to see such a scene in full swing, even in King's City.
The convenience market was located in the north of the square and was divided into two areas, separated by sycamore trees. On the right was the fair area, which was similar to the layout of the market. It was open to the street on all sides, and there was a wooden shed overhead. Inside were some practical ironware and agricultural products: the former included farming tools, hammers, drills, and nails, while the latter included eggs, beef, grapes, and some unknown food. These goods were placed in different categories in the stalls, and each stall was looked after by someone.
On the left was the boutique area, which was much smaller and surrounded by brick walls, more like a bungalow. There were a variety of goods inside, and they were more expensive, so there were much fewer people. On her second day in town, she was dragged around by Irene. If it was not for the fact that the Chief Knight had said that there was a rare new product on sale today, she would have gone to the tavern to drink two glasses of iced ale.
After registering, the two walked into the boutique area. The sales here were also very strange. There was only one entrance to the whole market, and the goods were placed on the shelves, so people could choose on their own. They didn't accept bargaining, and no one came to brag or promote their products. The prices and product introductions were written on parchment and pasted on the side. You could choose your favorite item and go to the door to pay.
Mey noticed that there were still a dozen colored cups left on the first row of shelves, and the patterns on them were still the same as the last time she came here. This meant that these cups had not been sold for almost a month, and if it was an ordinary merchant, they would definitely have lost money.
"Is this market really opened by His Royal Highness?" She asked.
"Yes," Carter nodded. "That's why you can see some incredible goods." He went to the third row of shelves, "For example, this."
"This … is the rare new product you were talking about?" Mey followed the Knight and saw five or six light yellow cubes on the shelf, each about the size of a palm, but she couldn't tell what they were used for.
"This is something that His Royal Highness tried to make himself. Now the witches in the castle, ahem, I mean the attendants and guards, are using it. If you use it to take a bath, it can easily remove the grease that is difficult to clean. After washing, you will feel a completely different refreshing feeling, and it can also leave a rose fragrance on your body. I swear, there is nothing more magical than this when you take a shower. "The Chief Knight said confidently.
Mey looked at the parchment pasted on the side, and saw a string of words marked on it: Soap.
